Army Issues Order to Stop U.S. Soldiers from Leaving
2004-06-02
EFL
The U.S. Army has issued an order preventing thousands of soldiers designated for duty in Iraq or Afghanistan from leaving the military even when their volunteer service commitment expires, officials said on Wednesday.
Here is where I have a question...
The move to extend the service of some soldiers involuntarily was the latest sign of increasing stress on the Army as the Pentagon strives to maintain adequate troop levels in the two conflicts.
Is this "increasing stress" a butt-munches’ journalists’ version of reality? What gives?
